• Slightly During July
A despatch from Ottawa says: -
During Tilly the cost of the weekly
budget of staple foods dropped slight-
ly, according to the figures given in
the current issue of the Labor Gazette.
The average was 516.84 at the middle
of July, es againet 510.92 1 ,June;
$13.77 in July, 1910, and 57.42 in July,
1914, The index number of wholesale
prices again declines, being 340.8 fOr
July, as compared with 349.3 for June,
294.9 for July, 1919, and 134.6 for july,
1914.
Numbering Things.
The idea of numbering things for the
purpose of identifying them is incon-
ceivably old. Men who have learneil
to count have always notedethe pas,
sage of time by numbering the houre,
the days and the years. Whenever a
new invention appeared that made it -
convenient to ientify the units, those _
units were numbered. In the early
days of railroading the engines bore
names, but in a few years the names
So multiplied that the engines had to
be designated by numbers, and the
erne-tablei indicated the several trains
in the same way. Cities number their
police officers and the houses in their
streets; the street railway companies
number their conductors and motor-
men. Every telephone station hue its
number. The motor car and the motor
boat must be registered and bear a
distinctive number.
It is an age of numbers.
The improvement of long-distance
roads for automobile traffic is likely to
lead scop to an interesting extension
of a practice that is already in gen-
eral use in France and that is about
to be Adopted on a barge scale in Eng-
land. All the great highways are to
bear each its distinctive number, To
show how it would work here, sup-
pose that there were three great trunk
routes from Montreal to Ottawa, num-
bered 3, 6 and 8. At every crossroad
on each of them there would be a sign-
board that would., show the number
conspicuously. No one could stray
from a road so marked.
The signboards would also indicate
distances and destinations. Thus, at
the crossing of two great highways
the signboards at right angles -the
terminals of the two roads being, let
us say, Avon and Hampton on the
one and Prankville and Weston on the
other -would read something like
this:
14 To Avon G7 mules.
To Hampton 183 miles
9 To Frankville 120 miles.
To Weston 11 miles.
Such a system would bo much more
helpful in the increasing complexity
of shorter state roads than for long-
clistence motoring. No better scheme
has yet' been devised for guiding the
traveler and preventing even blunder-
ers from straying.
The Dog Show at the Canadian Na-
tional Exhibition has been run for 25
yeaes and is second largest on the
continent.
